Do these require more grinding than draglites for 15x10 with 7.5 BS or is it not even possible over ls1 brakes?

They make an F-body specific cut for the 15x10, http://www.billetspecialties.com/ite...d=251&pid=1027.

They do make a 15x10, but if you want 17" diameter you may be able to call them and order a special size. I'm not sure if they do that.

My buddy is sales rep at Billet, and he claims they'll make whatever you want if you're willing to pay for it. He said they've had some inquires about making 18" street lites for example.
